Error instrumentsSoldering your Error Synth
For this workshop Error instruments will bring the LABsynt.
It is a handon stand alone synth where you can find the noise spots by touching your hands and play with the oscillators.
The front panel has an open header to experiement with multiple components to hear the manupulations of sounds such as using different values of capacitors, LEDs or resitors.
This synth is great if you like cinematic sounds, deep drones for creating an ambient piece.

James Osterlund
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin · Berlin School of Mind and BrainTinnitus Tones
You know that ringing in your ears? The EEEEEEEEEE sound that buzzes around your brain? It’s called tinnitus. And its tone, or tones, have mystified and mortified humans throughout history. While neuroscientists are closer to cracking the code behind this primarily cognitive phenomenon, talk of a cure still seems like science fiction.
In this workshop, attendees will be guided through a short introspective exercise in attending to their tinnitus tone(s) with as much awareness and precision as phenomenologically possible. Once well acquainted with their inner buzzes, bleeps and bloops, everyone is encouraged to artificially synthesize and present their inner noise for others to observe, compare, and --for want of understanding-- accept

Jeannette Petrik
Presenting the Zine para_llel , reflection on noise as a phenomenon, driving reflections on ambiguity and sound practices.
para_llel is a semi-collective project, which was put into motion in 2018, as a reflection on noise as a phenomenon, driving reflections on ambiguity and sound practices. Over the course of the following four years, the project became a testing ground for ideas about what a publication could be, mostly in the shape of informal conversations with publishers, curators, designers and artists. This first issue of para_llel is released in the context of the first edition of Berlin Noise Festival 2022. Contributors include Christopher Bohlen, Peter Kirn, Yuri Landman, James Osterlund, Jeannette Petrik and studio calh, while Jeannette Petrik edited texts and designed the publication.

How to start your own label or distribute your music
You have finished tracks and are not sure how to release it? Let’s talk a bit about labels, distribution and release plans in general and discuss the pros and cons of releasing on a
label and doing it yourself.
Do you want to launch your own label?
We will talk about the beginnings (forming a concept from an idea) and dive in into branding, design, workflow, admin
tasks, distribution and promotion options and rights management.
Do you want to self-release or release on your label? From creating assets (images, videos, digital and physical products) we will go through a release plan, scheduling and
promotion campaign and discuss some of the most important tools.

Ashley Puente
Ableton - First aid guide to integrating your hardware in DAWHave you ever run out of modulators or desire a deeper integration with your DAW and modular system? Did you ever think of a patch but didn’t have enough cables or modules to make it happen?
Hybrid systems combining analog and digital capabilities allow for many possibilities and new creative avenues to either adapt a Live set to make it tactile or use the modulators in your system to automate specific parameters on your digital instruments or effects to create a more dynamic beat, melody, or drones.
Working with your DAW and Live might sound overbearing and too complicated, but it can be fun once you break it into single parts. Ashley will run you through using a DC-coupled interface or module like Expert Sleepers(ES-8, ES-9, etc..)with your modular in Live. The basics of how to calibrate your oscillators to keep them in tune. To sync your DAW with your Eurorack using CV Clock in or out, send triggers to sequence drum sounds, and control your modular or drum racks with automation curves from Live. Overall, she will show how fun and creative this seemingly complicated thing can be.

Klein
Analog Filtering
How to start your DIY projects to build up to a modular synth
Who doesn’t love a good resonant low pass VCF? It’s arguably the beating heart of any subtractive synth – adding character, dynamics, and a good deal of retro-futuristic oddness to your patches.
In this circuit design workshop, Moritz Klein will walk you through the absolute basics of analog filtering. You'll be able to experiment with and learn about core concepts such as passive/active RC filters, variable cutoff frequencies and feedback/resonance. For that, the workshop includes a mki x es.edu DIY VCF kit, a breadboard, jumpers and batteries.
Afterwards, stick around for a group soldering session, where we'll assemble the VCF module using the PCB and panel included in the kit.

3 hours, coffee/tea/snacks, all hardware (mki x es.edu DIY VCF kit, a breadboard, jumpers and batteries)
